If the dog referenced above is standard colors, with the addition of white, wouldn't that make him tri-colored and a parti yorkie?
If the puppy is traditionally colored but only has a spot of white, they are not a Parti yorkie.. a Parti yorkie/tri colored yorkie/Biewer has a large percentage of the body white.. at a minimum the entire belly and inside of legs and tip of tail must be white.. most have alot more white (actually non color) that that.

If one of the parents of the above mentioned pup was a parti, that puppy is a parti carrier as he/she was given the recessive gene by one of his parents.. the traditional color however is dominate so you will get the traditional color unless you get 2 recessive "spotting" genes.. so, each parent would need to contribute one to get a tri color pup. In the above case, only one parent had the recessive gene to pass on.

Hope that helps
